Pyridine → HCID 14999110, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridine (0.5 ml) was added to a solution of -(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-pyridyl)thiazolidin-4one (0.5 g, 2.1 mmol) in acetic anhydride (2 ml) under cooling with ice. This cooling with ice was further continued for 2 hours. The product mixture was concentrated by evaporation under reduced pressure, and subjected to medium-pressure chromatography (hexaneacetone), giving 3-(2-acetoxyethyl)-5-methyl-2-(3-pyridyl)thiazolidin-4-one (0.45 g, 77% yield).
